| The Noah Activity Log | For security and accountability, Noah provides an Activity Log feature which records events taking place in Noah. Major enhancements have been introduced in Noah 4.9 that mean expanded tracking and improved management of Activity logging in Noah. |
| Security Questionnaire for Noah System 4 | As part of a product evaluation process, many locations have configuration and security questions that need to be reviewed regarding Noah System. Requirements vary from location to location but the Noah System 4.4 Security Questionnaire will answer many questions and provide a technical overview. |
| Noah Logging Error (archived) | For Noah versions 4.7 and older, a local Noah log file can store the first, last name, and Patient Number of a patient each time a Noah user selects a patient and opens a module. No additional personal identifying information (e.g. addresses, gender) is recorded. This is an error because all patient information must be stored in a way that is controllable for the hearing care business. |
